Sharing my experience at Tubotel! They missed our booking for tube with sea view and replaced with double decker + private bathroom & also refund RM50 (I suppose the double decker ones are pricier). To new customers please take note on these: 1) the glass at the door is transparent so need to close the light while changing at night 2) the bed ladder is quite high & no place to hold while climbing so need to be extra careful 3) there is a part of the floor that is broken so need to be careful too if stepped on it. To the management: 1) electricity trips every time I use the hot water 2) the baggage storage is so dusty in my room (the green door) 3) Please consider to provide qibla direction for Muslims customers too. Thank you! Overall I did enjoy the stay for the price paid and had a good sleep. Highly recommended if you will be on a lot on cruise and tour!

This is a hostel with a serene and tranquil environment. Located at the sea bank, it only takes 10 mins from the crowded Chenang beach. Except the wash room and toilet that are separated from the room, Tubotel offers a great view, simple yet delicious ala carté breakfast. You might want to consider to buy some snacks from outside before coming back to the hotel because there is no mini market around.
